The service offers a phased treatment pathway that aims to help the individual service user understand and plan their journey through treatment.

The service will provide support to individuals in a safe and homely environment and promote engagement with the women to help diminish their distress and help them achieve a better quality of life. For most individuals, this will involve the reduction of emotional behaviours associated with the eating disorder psychopathology and acquiring new skills necessary for surviving emotional crises, regulating emotions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
